Chapter 1109

Using fate as the guide, supplemented by other methods.

Even if Yuan Chen Tianjun eventually regained consciousness and did not truly perish from the backlash.

Yet Yuan Chen Tianjun was still severely wounded by the backlash.

Merely lightly disturbing Yuan Chen Tianjun's fate, without even striking, was enough to inflict heavy injury on a Tianjun who mastered the Dao of Time—such a result far exceeded the magic power consumed by disturbing Yuan Chen Tianjun's fate.

Yuan Chen Tianjun cultivated the Dao of Time; inflicting heavy injury upon a Hunyuan Daluo Jin Xian who had broken through using the Dao of Time was an extremely difficult task.

Even if one's realm could crush the opponent, it was still hard to inflict heavy injury within a short time.

The Dao of Time at the Hunyuan level could effortlessly refresh one's own state at an extremely low cost.

Unless one could land a killing blow, all a Hunyuan Daluo Jin Xian who understood the Dao of Time needed was a moment to instantly refresh their own state.

Landing a killing blow on a Hunyuan Daluo Jin Xian who understood the Dao of Time was no easy feat.

The Dao of Time at the Hunyuan level could easily hide oneself within other time dimensions.

Not to mention inflicting heavy injury—even hitting the opponent was no simple matter.

Of course, at the Hunyuan Daluo Jin Xian level, relying on the primordial force of the Dao, one could, at a certain cost, destroy time dimensions—not impossible.

Take the Dao of the Sword as an example.

The Dao of the Sword at the Hunyuan level could sever anything.

Even the Dao of Time could be cut through.

As long as one's realm was high enough, no matter how many time dimensions existed, a single sword strike could sever them all.

That is to say, as long as one unleashed sufficient power, one could directly destroy vast numbers of time dimensions.

Thus, even if the opponent hid themselves within time dimensions, one could still strike them.

However, this was the most crude method, requiring immense amounts of power.

Compared to attacking the opponent directly on the level of time dimensions through the Dao of Time.

Attacking the opponent by destroying vast numbers of time dimensions.

Required at least a hundredfold more power.

That is to say, without mastery of the Dao of Time, one needed at least a hundred times greater strength to possibly inflict heavy injury upon a Hunyuan Daluo Jin Xian who cultivated the Dao of Time.

Moreover, even if one inflicted heavy injury, they could recover very quickly.

This meant one had to continuously inflict heavy injury, striking the opponent thousands or tens of thousands of times within a short span, to possibly kill a Hunyuan Daluo Jin Xian who cultivated the Dao of Time.

Thus, one could see just how strong the survival capability of a Dao of Time cultivator was against ordinary cultivators.

As long as they didn't court death, under normal circumstances, a Dao of Time cultivator was unlikely to perish at the hands of other cultivators.

Yuan Chen Tianjun was even more extraordinary—he was the True Spirit of the Dao of Time, a favorite of the Changhe River, and required even less cost to refresh his own state.

Added to that, the Heavenly Dao's blessing—unless Luo Fu could inflict heavy injury upon Yuan Chen Tianjun ten thousand times within a single breath, he could not truly wound him.

Inflicting ten thousand heavy injuries upon Yuan Chen Tianjun, a Hunyuan Daluo Jin Xian, within a single breath would require an immense amount of magic power.

This was one reason why Yuan Chen Tianjun dared to resist Luo Fu even after Luo Fu had not stripped him of his control over the Dao of Time.

As long as Luo Fu did not use the Dao of Time to strip his authority over the Dao, preventing him from wielding time techniques, it was hard to truly wound him—or even threaten his life.

Thus, Yuan Chen Tianjun being severely wounded by the backlash of the Changhe River under Luo Fu's fate interference was undoubtedly a significant victory.

Of course, to Luo Fu, this victory was merely trivial.

After all, his true strength far surpassed Yuan Chen Tianjun's.

The current battle, in Luo Fu's eyes, was still like children playing house—worthless to boast about.

If Luo Fu's true self had personally intervened, a single strike would have been enough to cause Yuan Chen Tianjun to perish outright.

That strike, Luo Fu's true self need not even exert effort—just a casual, effortless blow would suffice.

With the weight of Luo Fu's true self, whenever he appeared, time within a surrounding area would be fixed.

Yuan Chen Tianjun, relying solely on his own abilities, could never alter time.

Luo Fu's indifference did not mean others were indifferent.

Especially the Twelve Ancestral Wushen and Saint Tongtian, who watched from the sidelines.

At this moment, their faces held only shock and confusion.

For they simply could not understand why Yuan Chen Tianjun had suddenly suffered severe injury from the backlash of the Dao of Time.

"Fate is capricious—this is the terrifying nature of the Dao of Fate. I never imagined Luo Fu mastered even the Dao of Fate, and with such profound attainment. To master both the Dao of Time and the Dao of Fate—what is there that Luo Fu cannot do?"

Watching Yuan Chen Tianjun, his body riddled with cracks, Saint Tongtian could not help but sigh.

Upon hearing Saint Tongtian's sigh, the Twelve Ancestral Wushen all nodded in deep agreement.

They too felt that Luo Fu was nearly omnipotent—of the Three Thousand Daos, none seemed beyond his mastery.

·······

Outside the Twelve Yuan Chen Small Heaven.

"Fate is capricious—I never imagined Luo Fu had mastered the Dao of Fate, the foremost of the Three Thousand Daos. And that spiritual treasure behind him—it does not seem ordinary at all; it is certainly a Primordial Supreme Treasure, and not just any Primordial Supreme Treasure."

Master Yuanshi, who had been closely observing Luo Fu, could not help but speak out.

His tone was more solemn than ever before.

Until now, Master Yuanshi had merely regarded Luo Fu as a junior, never considering him a rival.

In Master Yuanshi's view, even if Luo Fu was strong, he was still merely a Peak Saint.

Even if Luo Fu could resist a Saint, Master Yuanshi could easily suppress him by summoning the Pangu Banner.

But now, Master Yuanshi no longer thought so—Luo Fu's threat level in his heart had risen to the highest.

Facing Luo Fu, who was enhanced by the Chaos Pearl, Master Yuanshi no longer had certainty of victory.

As for suppressing Luo Fu—that was even more impossible.
